Weekend Deal Alvina Valenta AV9161 / 9161

Stunning dress, classy and elegant but not overly formal, and so flattering. I received so many compliments on it, and it looks great in the photos. The dress is ivory Alencon lace over ivory satin. I believe the dress in the photos on the Alvina Valenta website is ivory lace over champagne satin - the ivory satin is much brighter against the skin. I wore the dress once for my wedding in May 2013, and had it dry cleaned and vaccuum packed shortly afterwards. The dress is softly fluted and has a beautiful 3-tired hem with a sweep train. Purchased at Wedding Atelier in NYC. The dress came with a 2-inch champagne satin sash, which I didn't wear and unfortunately do not have anymore. I purchased the sash in the pictures from BridalSashbyTania on Etsy: (I wasn't planning on selling the sash, but let me know if this is a make-or-break issue.)
